This is a chronicle of my journey through birth, death, and adoption. This is where I rest when the road gets too long and lonely.

Paperwork hell

I wish I had more time to post here. I have so many things to talk about. Right now I am trying desperately to get this adoption application filled out. Other people must not sleep very much. There are just not enough hours in the day for a full time job, a family, and friends. I have so many demands on my time that I had to schedule a day a month in advance to spend doing something I enjoyed without my family.

Anyway - if anyone knows people that are dealing with foster adoption, I would love to know. I'm having a hard time finding answers to my many, many questions. This paperwork is taking forever and I'm feeling the strain of not having it done. I think a master's thesis would have been a lot easier. Yikes!

I have a friend who's in the process of adopting a little girl from Russia. I don't know if you're going that route, but I'm sure she has insight to some of the process. Let me know if you want her info--I'll contact her.

Also I have a friend who has an adoption website--www.growninmyheart.com. She has also adopted 2 boys is the past 5-6 years.

Good luck to you and your poor hands. I have acted as a reference to someone wanting to foster and even that had quite a mountain of associated paperwork. I'm sure you could do with a few extra hours in the day. xo

About Me

My life changed forever when we decided to free our precious little boy from his pain on December 30th, 2009. Now we are busy building our new lives and our bigger family. After adopting an amazing and talented older child we were blessed and amazed with another chance to be parents of a newborn. I'm always happy to hear from other moms missing their babies, moms-to-be, hoping to be moms, or any other friendly voices, wherever you are on the journey. Please click on my profile to email me.
